Razor Burn Cures

Occasionally, we forget to switch out our razor blades or run out of shaving cream when we need to shave the most. This of course, causes razor burn to even the most insensitive skin. Here are three ways that we’ve found to be most effective to soothe razor burn. The three ways are treating the affected area with black tea, Aloe Vera, and Tea Tree Oil. Black Tea contains tannic acid which can help soothe and relieve the inflammation as well as lessen the swollen area. For comforting relief with black tea, follow these 3 easy steps. 1. Brew a cup of black tea using one teabag. 2. Let the tea cool by either putting it in the fridge or freezer for approximately 10 minutes. 3. After the teabag has cooled down, rub the teabag over the affected area for 3 to 5 minutes. Repeat as many times needed through the duration of the day, and enjoy the comforting relief.
